New FEMBAs 2012

May 16, 2009Hello new members of the FEMBA Class of 2012,

We are getting excited to see many of you here on July 18 for our Mid-Summer Welcome event. Be thinking about your favorite photo of yourself, a photo that really shows you at your best. We’re working on the day’s schedule, and we may do an exercise where you need to bring a great photo of yourself.

We’re 91% complete with reading Round Three applications. The alumni readers have been getting all the applications back to me and Faculty Committee is about to happen. May 29th, we will release decisions and the final wave of new members of your class will get the good news. When the round three admits join the Google group, please make them feel welcome. There are great new people about to earn admission! Your Class is going to be fantastic.

We hope you’re meeting each other on the Google group and beginning to get a sense of all the amazing classmates for your MBA experience. There are not many action items until summer, but just to review you should have:

·Submitted your official transcripts / mark sheets (All Round One people are complete. There are just a few Round Two people pending.)

·Seen your official admission letter posted on ApplyYourself. Give us about 5 working days after we get your transcripts. After 5 days, you can call our admissions operations at 310-206-8279 to make sure we got them.

·FYI Summer Action Items: We will email you in early June with several forms to complete. We’ll give you lots of notice when they go out.

Additional information, from the calls we have been receiving:

·Financial Aid information is still finalizing, details here http://www.anderson.ucla.edu/x22316.xml·Career Services is planning some special late-summer activities, dates/times TBA. (FYI over 300 current Anderson students from FEMBA, MBA and Executive MBA participated in last Saturday’s “All Anderson Networking Event”, hosted by FEMBA Council and Career Services.)
